Ruana

Post by tongueriver »

I have studied and collected Ruana knives for some years. I have never seen anything that Rudy made that would have started out like this in any dimension- totally alien. And he did not electro-pencil etch the blades at that point in construction. And not in that position, and not that badly. Total fake.

I just looked at it. I am no expert but I did have a Ruana in my collection for many years and I would concur. As Elaine Benes from the TV show Seinfeld, said; "Fake ,fake. fake"
